Book Display Basics - Get Inspiration from Marketing Emails

One thing I always suggest is that you pay attention to the many marketing emails that you receive from publishers and other mailing lists. They often create lists with clever names that you can borrow. Just create a list or display with titles from your existing collection. Alter the title as you need to depending upon your library’s needs. They can be used to just spark inspiration. I will list some recent examples I have received below.

From A Love So True:
